RIR are larger than most EE's. The picture looks like a normal EE pullet for the age. A bit of curl on toes is not uncommon. Do her legs always turn in, or is that just the way she is standing in the picture?

I didn't know that, thank you!Females can grow spurs too!![]()
Curled toes to the side are fairly common, and should not affect her in any way. I have had a few hens with that, and they could roost normally. If seen in the first couple of days of life, crooked toes may be taped in normal position on the top and bottom. But after that it would be too late and painful.They seems to be curling to the side. At the moment it's super minor (this situation just started). I'll see if I can post a video. I just went to the feed store and got Rooster Booster Liquid B-12 Plus Vitamin K Chicken Supplement. It doesn't get picked on by the others and it's able to eat and drink fine. Side note, I'm not sure of it's sex. Do you think it's a hen?
Fleur, i swear, had a complete sex change. All our friends and neighbours agreed. It was quite the talk of the village. She started strutting, became aggressive, climbed on top of the other hens and crowed loud enough to wake the dead.I didn't know that, thank you!
